Somebody posted a link to the k-sled a little while back. Thanks for doing so (think it was larkim), anyway..... I am somewhat dense at times and may be missing something real small or whatever, but I am just not picturing this thing in motion.


What stops the blade from going all the way throught he kerf?


Thanks in advance.


Jon

There is a stop that you have to set in order to keep it from cutting all the way through.


I built one that didnt exactly follow the plans for the ksled, but tore it apart and built one closer to the plans from this site. The only thing I had to change was to make a pin that would keep the ribbon fromn backing up after it had the kerf cut in it. Otherwise, it works like a dream and I now make all of my kerfed linings.


HERE IS THE LINK

Hi I am just back online with a new ISP after a week in dial-up doldrums so the link will not work. I will be hosting the tute on the new ISP when I find time and will update shortly. Be patient with me, it will happen

Cheers

Kim

John, it is Kim's link, so it won't work till he updates it on his new ISP.  Be Brave!
